And the big question is “How were minorities, women and children most affected adversely?”

Geologists from GUtech, in cooperation with archeologists from the Ministry of Heritage and Culture, have dug up evidence of a tsunami or severe storm that hit Ras Al Hadd about 4,500 years ago...Did global warming cause it?

Did global warming cause it? Of course it did. How can you ask?

Forty-five hundred years ago - wasn’t that about the time of the Great Flood?

Of course it did. How can you ask? I don't know. I must have gone temporarily insane. I should have known globull warming was the cause. I will try to keep my sanity from now on.

Something like that. If they examine the land enough, someone may even discover there was worldwide destruction at about the same time. Wouldn't "someone" who discovered this fact become really famous!!

The oft-cited date of the OT Great Flood is 2200 BC. There remains zero evidence that it ever took place.

It’s a little late to be reporting on it now, isn’t it?

SunkenCiv, I've not know you as one to be facetious. But you are joshing us with your second sentence, right?
To: Resettozero
Well, the people in Oman rebuilt quickly, so you’d have to read “the whole world” in the same way it’s used when Luke claims “all the world” participated in the census. But yes.

I’ve been to Oman......on a secret base called SEEB. Back in when the war kicked off.

I thought the Great Flood was the Black Sea Deluge (ca. 5600 BC)?
